Mind your language Mr Morgan Tsvangirai

Morgan Tsvangirai protocol team needs an urgent reshuffle for over-sleeping on the job leaving the president's loose-tongue unstrategically on the run.
Tsvangirai grossly suffers from a devastatingly very short memory coupled with a very week protocol team. The man suffered and battled treason charges that lawfully emanated from his uncalculating loose-tongue. Addressing a rally about ten years ago, Tsvangirai was quoted as threatening a legitimately elected Mugabe, in terms of ZANU OF paper-work, "Mugabe! If you don't go peacefully, we will remove you violently!" This was despite him (Tsvangirai) having been surrounded by his protocol 24 hours per day.
Tsvangirai is at it again! "I will not accept defeat!" He says. Anyone who faces defeat was expected to play a good loser. Tsvangirai has been so misguided as to seek to emulate Mugabe who runs away with the election all the time. Defeat was unambiguous! And losers should abide by the rules of the game as every game carries both the loser and the victor. When Morgan Tsvangirai suffers defeat he just has to go to Buhera and wail in his mother's kitchen, before he can start strategising for another loss in five years time.
By such careless or irresponsible utterence Tsvangirai could provoke the evil powers behind the elections to disqualify him from participation and even lock him up for the purposes of safe-guarding the election that he has found it fit to unlawfully and publicly threaten the election twelve months in advance. How he has found it most appropriate to belt-out such threats instead of lawfully pinning-down Mugabe to effect The State Reforms as per Global Political Agreement of September 2009. It would have made much sense if Tsvangirai had threatened with his rejection of the set election process in an unreformed state. Defeat is lawful or legitimate loss. And, therefore, there was no need to resent it.
